Mace is great, but it should also be like highway marking paint, leaving bright colors on the perp.

Sabre’s new blue marking dye adds another powerful ingredient to keep you safe.
Coupling intense burning of the eyes, coughing, sneezing, and runny nose with a new thick blue marking dye turns criminals into smurfs!

Gee, maybe this really was the Amish.

The alleged escape vehicle.

Yes, indeedy - but a touch of ‘technological escalatio’ might be appropriate: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nug5FZgxuk

I’ll admit it might require the Horse Whisper hissef’ to keep the horses under control during “Urban Feral attitude adjustment secessions”.

I agree, but the story itself is not the real story. The comments are the real story. That is what is being left unsaid in the news story. The cities are about to erupt.

Yes, do read the comments at the source. The level of rage that is evinced is stunning. Obama and Holder are in danger of seriously over-playing their hand. One slight miscalculation and things are going to blow.

If that is the case, and I’m assuming the thugs are driving over, it shouldn’t be hard for the St. Louis police to track cars with Illinois plates full of young, black males parking in the downtown area then spreading out to assault people.

"police presence"

Some years ago I went to a game at old Comiskey Park in Chicago. After the night game there was a large number of cops guiding cars making sure they took the correct route back to the freeway.

My bro-in-law, who used to have season tickets to Sox games, loaned them to some out of town friends one time giving them careful instructions on which route to take when the game was over. After the game, his friends proceeded to get in their car and take the wrong route. They drove several blocks down the wrong street when all of a sudden rocks and bricks were thrown at their car. The driver did a quick u-turn and raced out of the area at breakneck speed.

We need a thousand Fergusens to let the animals know that we’re taking back American from the criminal thugs. And if the Nazi Heinreich Holder wants to pose his fat butt out on the battlefield, I don’t have a problem with that.

You mercenary thugs guarding the traitors in DC, best start thinking real hard about which side you’re on.

Lovely. I’m going to a conference in downtown St. Louis in two weeks. Can one hire an armored car for transportation?

It’s retro to have horse-drawn carriages, but full retro would include someone riding shotgun in hostile territory.

Like a Wells Fargo stagecoach.

best comment I saw. and probably would happen too

“If a horse accidentally steps on one of these Obama lookalike perps; brace yourself for riots, looting, murder, Sharpton, Holder, etc. Oh darn how racist of me!”

one of the most honest, ballsy comments I have read regarding the Fed LE goons protecting this racist DOJ hatchet man.
